Historic Cobalt

This headframe is situated on million dollar lake thus named for the amount of silver still in the lake. It is at the edge of town and you can see the railway running alongside the headframe. It was the construction of the railway to open up the north that led to the discovery of North America's largest silver mining area.

Thank you for your comments and favs on yesterday's photo Northern Sunset, I really enjoy reading them.
